The Godfather: Part II 教父2 1974 Movie Script

(shaking hands)

MAMA:

(Sicilian) Those two are perfect for each other.

MERLE:

What's that mean?

CONNIE:

Mama!

PENTANGELI:

(Sicilian) Michael, in all respect, I didn't come three thousand miles for dinner.

MICHAEL:

(Sicilian) I know.

PENTANGELI:

(Sicilian) When do we talk?

MICHAEL:

(Sicilian) After dinner.

By now, the conversation has become exclusively Sicilian, with Merle and Deanna, looking from side to side like in a tennis match. Finally, Kay, to be polite:

KAY:

Anthony, you were talking to Mr.

Pentangeli?

ANTHONY:

His name is "Five-Angels."

PENTANGELI:

Yeah, the kid and me talked Sicilian.

A one-way conversation!

INT. TAHOE BOATHOUSE - NIGHT Pentangeli is angry; but because it is Michael he is talking to, he keeps his voice low and represses his desire to shout.

PENTANGELI:

Sure, Pete Clemenza died of a heart attack, but the Rosato Brothers gave it to him.

MICHAEL:

We were all heartbroken at the news; but that wasn't cause to start a war.

PENTANGELI:

Okay, now it's my family in Brooklyn; and I wanna keep up Clemenza's loyalty to you. But how can I run my family with you challenging my every move? You're too far from the street, Mike, the only way to reason with the Rosato Brothers is to whack 'em and whack 'em fast.

MICHAEL:

You were unfair with them.

PENTANGELI:

Says who?

MICHAEL:

Clemenza promised Rosato three territories in the Bronx after he died, and then you took over and welched.

PENTANGELI:

Clemenza promised them nothing, he hated the sonsuvbitches.

MICHAEL:

They feel cheated.

PENTANGELI:

Michael, you're sitting up here in the Sierra Mountains with champagne cocktails making judgment on the way I run my family.

MICHAEL:

(suddenly in Sicilian) Your family still carries the name Corleone, and you will run it like a Corleone!
